Strap not adjustable; tore at seam after only a few uses.

The product description mentions that the waist belt is adjustable. This is true. However, the strap that connects the belt to the buoy is not, and it's a bit longer than I would prefer. This was pretty easily solvable by simply tying a knot in the strap, so this isn't a big deal, just a minor annoyance.What is a big deal is that after having only used this about five times, I brought it out one day to find that it wasn't holding air. I thought I must have accidentally punctured it, but when I found the hole it wasn't a puncture at all: it was coming apart at the seam. This could simply be bad luck. Or maybe the glue they used can't tolerate heat (it had been sitting in the trunk of my car). Who knows.I can probably throw some crazy glue in there and tape over it to get some extra life out of this thing, but who knows how bad it will get. Probably best to try one of the other products out there.
